How to Clean Teak Outdoor Furniture — Ahead of Storing It Away for Fall

A teak outdoor dining table.

Cleaning outdoor teak furniture may not be top of your priority list right now, yet this simple task can extend the life of expensive teak tables, chairs, sofas and more. Splashes and spills from sauces, oils, greasy food scraps or sun lotions can take their toll on teak's surface and are best dealt with as soon as possible.

It's not too late if you didn't deal with them straight away — teak is popular for its durability, as much as its beauty. Those in cooler parts of the continent may soon be storing, covering or packing up their outdoor teak furniture, and it's a good idea to give it a thorough clean before it goes into storage to save you having to restore weathered teak furniture later down the line.
